I traded in my 04 srt-4 in June for an 05 ww gsr. I love my evo, and it was the smartest thing I ever did. I only bought the srt-4 because, at that time, i could not afford an evo. It's hard to compare the two beyond turbocharged 4 bangers, their completely different.

wow, I had an 04 SRT4 also, which I spent almost 6 months trying to sell it.

I sold it mid june, picked up my EVO at the end of June....

I feel like the EVO excels in braking handling, styling, and acceleration (depending on engine mod level)

there is no denying that the Evo is a better car.... I mean, it costs more. I would hope it is a better car. SRT-4 tho, good car for the money.

turbo car does not make a good daily driver....i doubt the srt-bag gets much better gas mileage than the evo...
